She had the green light Confidently she drove
her black sedan out into the four-lane highway to
cross. It never occurred to her to look to the left,
the most likely point of danger. On the main high-
way a speeding driver saw, too late, the red light
commanding him to stop. He jammed on his
brakes, and his tires shrieked as if in horror at
the impending crash. The woman was killed in-
stantly; the man died that night!
Witnesses standing where the tragedy occurred
blamed the man alone; he had broken a law. In
grim reality she was equally to blame, for if she
had but looked to the left, there would have been
no accident. She had placed too much trust in a
green light and in her fellow drivers. That is the
story as related by the Texas Highway Patrol.
That fault today, common to most of us, is one
^f the largest contributors to our mounting motor
vehicle casualty lists, according to two of the
newest studies of how and where fatal accidents
happen, The message of the studies is that a green
light means, not safety, but: ‘‘BEWARE OF
DEATH.”
August is our high accident month according
to the records of the Texas Highway Patrol. Last
year during the month of August we had 14
deaths, 116 injuries and a property damage loss
of $111,685.00 out of 186 accidents that occurred in
the Tyler District.
Many motorists will be traveling our highways
during the vacation month of August. Do not de-
pend on them to obey the traffic signs and signals.
“BEWARE OF DEATH” with both the green
and red lights so that you will not be counted
among the casualties tor the month of August,
1952!—

State Health Officer
AUSTIN, Aug. 7—Parenta of all
children who will respond to tho
school bell for the first time in
September should to be sure their
child is physically ready for school
duties.
First and foremost is the need
for vaccination against smallpox.
Parents should see that childrer
are vaccinated before they are one
year of age; however if not done
previously, at school age vaccina-
tion becomes absolutely necessary
If your child has not been vacci-
nated, have it done immediately
for his own protection and that of
others.
Immunization against diptheria
is also highly important. This dis-
To Hear Grievancee
can be prevented with toxid. Tho
child who has never been protect-
ed should be given this safeguard
aganist a dreaded killing disease
Even though he may have been
immunized as s baby, doctors and
health officers usually recommend
an additional dose of toxid tc
strengthen immunity before en
trance into school.
In addition, before you send youi
child to school you are urged tc
take him to your family phyaiciar
and dentist for a thorough exam-
ination. You will want to know
that he is in good physical condi-
tion and can compete with the oth.
er children on equal terms.
If the check-up reveals any weak-
ness or defects they should be cor-
rected at once. Don’t l*t your child
Several lawyers of the Third
Congressional District were noti-
fied this week of their appoint-
ment as members of the district
grievance committee of the State
Bar of Texas.
Purpose of the committee, Is to
investigate alleged cases of pro-
fessional misconduct and establish
better understanding between
clients and attorneys. Aggrieved
clients may make complaints to
the committee against lawyers and
be assured of a fair and impartial
hearing.
Local committeemen named
were W. P. Jones, Mineola, and
Gordon R. Wynne, Wills Point.
Prospects for excellent Texas'
business appear promising for tho I
duration of IMS, Dr. A. Hamilton
Chute, Univeraity of Texas Bureau
of Business Research retailing
specialist, reported this “Week. |
“The Southweat for the most
recent IS months had retail salts
ahead of the national averages
and the over-all results for 1962
should be better than those shown
in 1961," Dr. Chute says. M
‘With 2,681 Texas stores report^
ing, total retail sales in June
slipped below May by nine per
cent, but averaged four per centl
over June, 1961.

KP duty 1,095 times by the time another
August rolls around. . . j
Naturally, you’d like to do this kitchen work
the easiest way possible — and that’s in a
